Counting down to Christmas

We are having a very fun time looking forward to Christmas this year!

I'm enjoying keeping up old traditions and starting new ones and always searching for ways to point my children towards Christ during this time.

Here's a bit of our traditions.



OLD

Decorate the tree after returning from Thanksgiving weekend with family.

Make & decorate sugar cookies

Participate in a Christmas Cookie exchange

Read lots of Christmas books

Drive around and look at Christmas lights



NEW

Mail out Christmas cards and letters

Make & decorate gingerbread men

Read a chapter from "One Wintry Night" & "The Indescribable Gift" nightly.
